I found out those pics are of a Lenny Henry written drama called Danny and the human zoo.

Oh, a lot going on in Dudley then.
In 1977 (I was 11) we the family business had the Zoo catering contract which included the Moat Cafe next to the sea lions, and it's next door to the queen mary ballroom, I caught glimpse of Lenny a few times in the grounds in the 80's, he used to go to the queen mary in the 70's which is where it all started for him.

I also ran the Zoo chairlift from 1986 to 1988.
I'm fond of Dudley.
